The North East Ambulance Service uses a system called NHS Pathways to determine the most appropriate care for our patients. That may mean that we send you an ambulance, but it may also mean that we refer you to another pathway of care such a Walk-in Centre or your local GP.

To find out more about NHS Pathways and how our staff are trained and what they think of the system you click on the FAQs and Case Studies below.
